I saw it so long ago that I had forgotten many of the details and interestingn data . You must be a fountain of knowledge. What area are you from? I am in the cold Buffalo, N.Y. area. Occupation is professional Magician, so you can see why I love any long forgotten knowledge. Thanks again. Frank C. Fendt Chameleon and a Clown Magically yours. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2001 04:29:17 -0800 (PST) From: Robin Jaynette <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #36 Hey Ya'll, I noticed something eles in last nights episoide "The Summit", when Barney called FBI headquarters from the old mans house, he picked up the phone and said "operator", later when Andy made a call to Raleigh, he picked up the phone and just said something like "give me police headquarters in Raleigh", the point, neither one mentions Sara, I know poor ole Sara has to have a day off once and a while, but Andy and Barn did not seem very personable with this operator, I would think that even if this person was just Sara's relief help, Andy would know her, reckon Mayberry had gone high tech by then?

Last night I saw a very good color episode. Barney was in it!!! Loved it. Its just not the same without good ol Barn.

Gret movie! At the beginning, a FedEx pickup is made of a package, in Texas, at a place with a metal sign over the entrance which reads "Dick & Bettina". TAGS connection? I won't tell you what was in the package, but it did contirbute greatly to the survival of Hanks on the island. Just thought it interesting that Dick and Bettina had made their way into this movie! wsims thecameranut ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2001 08:44:10 -0500 From: "Rice, Steven R." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Otis' Evil Companions I was watching the episode where Otis buys a car t'other night and noticed an interesting paradox. In the scene where Andy and Barney go over to Charlie Varney's house to investigate their suspicions about the imbibing that was going on inside there is a building in the background that appears to have windows that are typical of a church. This would put the church directly across the street from Charlie Varney's house. Wonder if Charlie ever went?

I have one of those acrylic 3D magnets of Aunt Bee on the exhaust hood over my stove and something higher up fell and knocked it into a kettle of hot oil. Well I fished it out and washed it and it looks fine! Not that I recommend trying this as an experiment to relieve boredom but it's nice to know what fine quality stuff Mr. Weaver sells!!!

I agree with most things said in both the positive and negative light... I do know that it won't be long until the black and whites cycle back around... Having the colored ones on doesn't keep me from watching right now... Last night I was watching the one where Andy and Goober go to the auto show... Towards the end of the show after Andy has bought his bottle of "pop" and notices Goober's friend working on the car - he goes to get Goober and passing by on the street was a Coors beer truck !!!!! Couldn't believe I had never seen that before.... Not sure Coors beer was is"Raleigh" back in the 60's, but I'm sure it was in California where the shows were filmed... Just a little side note... Have a great week, Gary in Searcy, AR ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2001 13:08:16 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Andy In Primetime Look for Andy next week on the ABC-TV Network's, "Family Law". Monday night, February fifth at 10PM EST/9PM CST. Tom Strongbow ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2001 14:14:57 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Andy's movies I have "Pray for the Wildcats" recorded, and it is really hard to see Andy playing a bad guy. But I think he's even worse in "Murder in Coweta County" where he looks more like Ben Matlock. I think he was Ben's nemesis/alter ego in that one! I also do have a copy of "Angel in My Pocket", recorded off of a satellite. BTW, I love the color episodes, I am so glad to get to see them as they are not usually aired. - -- Grace "I Do Believe in Opie" chapter ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2001 17:36:44 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #36 Hey David..tell us you sent the letter by mistake? If not, then who the heck is Nancy, Ruth, Pattie, and Lauren? Don't mean to be one of those funny jokesters..but it was quite funny. Think I'll go down to the hospital and take the bolts out of the wheelchairs. Now that's a riot! P.S. Hope you know this is all in Mayberry fun. Lots of luck to you and yours. jenny in bama ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2001 17:55:20 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: wbmutbb-digest V3 #36 I take offense to the hoot owl receipe. Hard enough to fly upside down, now I got to dodge hoot owl hunters! crazyowl ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2001 01:17:11 -0000 From: "Charlie Brakefield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: B&W's Without Barney <Granted, there was a special chemistry between Andy and Barney that was lost once Don Knotts left the show after season five -- as well as the loss of the rustic, timeless atmosphere of the black-and-white episodes -- but I've always held the three color seasons in high regard, and am happy to read so many comments supporting them.> I just wanted to mention that there were also some great B&W episodes without Barney - maybe it just didn't seen as obvious since he was just gone for one episode every now and then. Some that come to mind are: Goober Takes a Car Apart, Floyd the Gay Deceiver, and Opie's Charity. I love Barn but these featured some of the other people and gave them a chance to shine a little more. BTW - I think Howard was cool - in a nerdish kinda way... (Nerdish?? Sounds like one of them travelin religions!!) - -Charlie _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2001 22:16:45 EST From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Aunt Bee Flies Being from Southern California, I couldn't help but recognize the local terrain in the episode where Aunt Bee goes flying. The aerial shots of farmland in a desert-like valley, and even the little airport with its surrounding houses looked very Californian. Do these locations look odd to those of you who are from NC? Seeing Aunt Bee in a little plane like that sure modernizes the episode, doesn't it?

I just love it when Barn sings to Juanita on the phone and Andy jumps in and sends him into a tizzy(you beat everything,you know that?)! From "The ballad of Barney Fife", to the bandshell concert that never happened,(might be spiders under there), to Barney shimmy-dancing at Jim Lindsey's audition, the songs of Mayberry are some of the richest and most well remembered parts of the series.Wo could forget a tipsy-from Indian Elixer Aunt Bee spinning around at the piano and singing"Toot Toot Tootsie" with the girls during the Ladies Auxillary meeting; or the chorus episodes involving Gomer or Rafe Hollister, or Barney's desire to emulate Leonard Blush after the teachings of Elenora Poultice(Just keep on flippin those burgers,Al)?? I could go on for hours. Best to You and Yours Jubal Foster P.S. How about those great background tunes("The Lawman Theme, or Mayberry R.F.D.,for example.) P.P.S. I saw old Jud(Bert Mustin) in an old Humphrey Bogart movie on AMC the other night. Not only was he not disturbin' the peace, he was on for maybe 25 seconds and didnt say a word! He played a a bank security guard, further enhancing the Jud-Asa confusion. "Oh my Barney, oh my Barney, had a jail but couldn't lock it had one bullet for his pistol, had to keep it in my pocket" ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2001 15:52:43 -0600 From: Keith Miles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: This program comes to you in living color Glad to hear some support for those out there who like the color episodes...without Barney it ain't the same, but there are some great color episodes...Dinner at Eight, The Wedding, Floyd's Barbershop for sale, Mayberry Hosts a Summit Meeting...just to name a few. I particularly enjoy Floyd's "post-stroke" mannerisms and reactions. I would love to have seen an interview with Howard McNear from that time, since everyone with the show said he was the same in or out of his Floyd character. Don't want to start a moulage here, but I would never think of turning off the color in watching the color episodes...it's a treat to see Mayberry and its citizens in color, and I wouldn't even mind watching some "colorized" black & white episodes (if it's done right so Aunt Bee doesn't have green hair!). Don't get me wrong...I enjoy B&W TAGS and don't feel like I'm missing anything, but color TAGS (and color Dick Van Dyke) would be fun! Keith Andy: "How do you say his name?"
